Employment termination letter
templateA straightforward notice of termination — separate from a severance agreement, which negotiates terms and a release in exchange for pay. Required notice periods and permissible reasons vary significantly by jurisdiction and employment type.
Good fit for
- +A clear, dated, professional notice when employment is ending with no severance negotiation
- +Documenting the effective date and final pay/benefits details
Not ideal for
- −Situations involving negotiated severance pay or a release of claims — use the severance agreement for that
- −Skipping your jurisdiction's required notice period or final-pay rules — verify local employment standards first

Unless a template shows a "Reviewed by" badge, it hasn't been reviewed by a lawyer. Have a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction review any document before you rely on or sign it.
